Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

love is a burning thing
and it makes a fiery ring
bound by the wild desire
hell I fell into a ring of fire

I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down down down
the flames they went higher
and it burns burns burns
that ring of fire
that ring of fire
that ring of fire

the chase of love is sweet
when hearts like ours meet
I felt for you like a child
oh my heart went wild

I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down down down
the flames they went higher
and it burns burns burns
that ring of fire
that ring of fire
that ring of fire

I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down down down
the flames they went higher
and it burns burns burns
that ring of fire
that ring of fire
that ring of fire

I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down down down
the flames they went higher
and it burns burns burns
that ring of fire




that ring of fire
that ring of fire
